Andelícek pro štestí je jedním z fenoménu katedrály sv. Bartolomeje na plzenském námestí.

Podle povesti se zázracné úcinky andelícka tradují od doby, kdy se v chrámu sv. Bartolomeje ženil plzenský kat.
A protože kat do kostela nesmel, zastupoval jej u oltáre jeho prítel.
Kat se v tu dobu modlil u zadního vnejšího oltáre chrámu. Po skoncení modlidby se, když vstával, zachytil andelícka vykovaného na mríži u oltáre. Jelikož tato událost nebyla beze svedku, zacala se šírit legenda.

Ve stredovekých poverách,mely predmety, kterých se dotkl kat mimorádné vlastnosti. Tak se povest o andelíckovi rychle rozšírila do celého kraje a šírí se dodnes.
Mužete se sami prijít presvedcit ...

An angel that is supposed to bring good luck if touched is one of the phenomena of the St. Bartholomew Cathedral at the Pilsen city square.

According to the legend, the angel started bringin luck on the day on which a Pilsen medieval executor was getting married. Such a person could not enter the wholy place, so he had to be substituted during the ceremony (by the altar only) by a friend of his.
While the bride and the substituting bridegroom were being married, the executioner was praying by the outer rear altar of the church. After having ended his prayers, rising to his feet, he incidentally touched the head of an angel forged on the bars of the church.

The act of course had its witnesses - the Pilsen burgher ladies immediately spread the news and the legend came to existance. In medieval superstition, whatever subject touched by the executioner was immediately ascribed to having miraculous effects.The legend about the miraculous angel soon widely spread in all the region.

It keeps spreading in our modern times as well. You are welcome to come in person and have a try to ensure your future too ...
